'KARACHI - As another spring approaches in Afghanistan, another Taliban-led offensive is planned. But this year, the Taliban believe, unlike in the previous offensives in the five years since they were booted out of power in Kabul, they are better organized than ever before.
A key to the Taliban's revival has been the links it has forged with the resistance in Iraq, which has provided hundreds of Taliban with hands-on training in that country, as well as logistical and tactical support.'http://www.atimes.com/atimes/South_Asia/HC15Df03.html
so not only did Bushco let the Taliban/Al-Qaeda off the hook when they diverted resources to Iraq...but the Iraq occupation has actually allowed them to bounce back?
